THE PAPER SHELTER–Happy Birthday BLOG HOP!!

Good Morning fellow crafters and welcome to The Paper Shelter Blog Hop!  This hop is to celebrate The Paper Shelter Shop reaching their 8th Birthday on December 8th. It will be a two week Challenge and both Design Teams are taking part.
The Hop is our way of inviting you to join in with us and the challenge theme this time "BIRTHDAY/ CELEBRATIONS" – we all need what seems like an endless supply of birthday cards! LOL
If you have landed here from my good friend Priyadarshini’s blog then you're heading in the right direction - if not then you'll want to head on back to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog and start at the beginning, as you'll not want to miss out on this one! Our Design Teams have worked very hard and are showcasing the gorgeous images available from The Paper Shelter Shop and each blog on the hop is offering one lucky commentor a digi of their choice as well as the main prize, details of which are on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog

For my card this week, I have used the beautiful Venice Carnival digi image.  Image is colored with Copics, Sakura glitter and Atyou Spica pens and cut out with die from Heartfelt Creations.  I used a Fiskars punch for the side and weaved lace from Really Reasonable Ribbon through it. 

My papers are from First Edition, sentiment is from a rubber stamp from my stash.  I added Prima crystals to the sentiment die cut.  Sentiment is embossed with iridescent embossing powder.  I also added Prima pearl flourishes.  I sure hope you like it.

From here you will need to hop on over to the amazing Patsy Long’s blog.  Don't forget to leave your comment for a chance of winning your choice of one of the fab digis available in The Paper Shelter Shop.
Hop! Hop! Hop!
Good luck and hope you're enjoying it so far.
Hugs Audrey
